Premier Mounts Opens Doors With Universal Enclosure

Indoor and outdoor Universal Enclosure blends lifestyle and entertainment

September 11, 2007

Industry trends show that consumer entertainment needs are expanding beyond the living room. From the patio to the pool, consumers are integrating flat-panel displays into their lifestyles and into every conceivable location. To meet growing consumer demand, Premier Mounts (www.mounts.com) introduces a Universal Enclosure for indoor and outdoor mounting of flat-panel displays. Introduced at 2007 CEDIA EXPO (booth # 234) the Universal Enclosure blends lifestyle and entertainment. An industry first, the Universal Enclosure draws upon Premier Mounts’ 30 years of expertise in designing and manufacturing custom mounts and enclosures to develop a universal solution that works both inside and outside — with the same casing. “The Universal Enclosure opens doors for consumers and integrators who are looking to expand entertainment and signage usage — especially at a time when outdoor living is growing so dramatically,” said Len Dozier, founder and CEO of Premier Mounts. “Integrators will immediately recognize the quality and versatility of this product. By taking the key benefits of custom enclosures and making it into a universal solution, we’ve revolutionized how and where flat-panel displays can be used.” Ideally suited for home entertainment, hospitality, retail, education and digital signage applications, the Universal Enclosure fits 37” to 47” flat-panel displays. The Universal Enclosure is designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit. With a compact footprint, the enclosure provides a dramatic impact without sacrificing valuable real estate. Additionally, the flexible enclosure casing can be mounted directly to walls, posts, ceiling adapters (all in either portrait or landscape orientation) to meet application aesthetics and space needs. Patent-pending design features make the Universal Enclosure from Premier Mounts the first one of its kind that needs zero stand-off for ventilation, which means a low-profile, aesthetically pleasing installation. Standard features on the new Universal Enclosure include: • Exclusive ventilation technology with built-in thermostat and intake/outtake fans that keep the display running at optimal temperatures • Universal mounting brackets to fit most displays on the market • Infrared masking which allow users to use factory shipped display remote controls without sacrificing aesthetics or case integrity • Antiglare acrylic overlays for optimum viewing angles • Unbreakable acrylic and dual keyed locks for equipment security In addition to the numerous standard features, there are several options that can be added to customize the enclosure for almost any setting or application. These options include additional fans, air conditioning units and heating components as well as custom casing colors.
